8. REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
8.1 GENERAL
DANGER
The pump and parts may contain hazardous media as determined by the
process. Assure that pump and parts are evacuated of hazardous media
prior to servicing.
WARNING
Machine should be powered off and secured with proper Lock Out / Tag Out
procedures prior to removal of any guards or panels and to ensure there
are no accidental starts.
CAUTION
The electrical service must be isolated and de-energized prior to
maintenance. Apply appropriate procedures to assure electrical supply is
de-energized and cannot be inadvertently energized during maintenance.
Assure piping and product are isolated prior to maintenance of pump.
Apply appropriate procedures to assure piping and product is isolated and
that inadvertent opening of valves cannot occur during maintenance.
DISCHARGING VALVES
If the cause of poor pump
vacuum is not due to leaks or oil
contamination, the next step is
to inspect the discharge valves
(see Figure 7). The discharge
valves are located at the
exhaust port of each chamber.
They should not cause trouble
unless they are mechanically
damaged or are prevented from
sealing properly due to foreign
matter on the valve seat.
Under normal pump usage,
the valves should be replaced
annually. When the pump is
operating at blank-off without
gas ballast, a sharp hydraulic
noise (click) indicates proper
valve operation.
The poppet type valve has six
flat, washer-like springs which
press against a sealing disk.
The disk fits against a seal
forming a tight seal. The springs
are maintained in place by a
lift stop and the entire valve is
held together by a capscrew.
The valves are attached to the
cylinder by means of screws
and a hold-down plate.
